"As AEG Live embarks on its fourth collaboration with one of today's greatest original rock bands, it is no surprise that they are going to sell out stadiums and arenas around the globe, since Bon Jovi has consistently delivered the goods to their hardcore and new fans alike," said Randy Phillips, president and CEO of AEG Live.
" 'Because We Can — The Tour' will again showcase Bon Jovi's immense catalog of hits and some incredible new music from the forthcoming 'What About Now' album and the signature state-of-the-art production that have become the hallmarks of Bon Jovi tours."
Overwhelming demand for the band's previously announced Canadian dates has already led to second shows in Montreal and Toronto, and Bon Jovi has plenty more in store. The band will expand its current tour schedule with additional North American dates, including Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass.; Ford Field in Detroit and many more. The current tour itinerary is listed below, with further details to come. View U.S. tour announcement video here.

The group's return to the road in 2013 will launch the latest chapter in an ongoing blockbuster run, which has already secured Bon Jovi's status as the essential live rock band, having performed more than 2,700 concerts in more than 50 countries for more than 35 million fans.
